“Confess your fault’s one to another, and pray for one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” ~ James 5:16 KJV

In order to Truly be Set Free, Healed, Forgiven & Move on, one must acknowledge & accept responsibility for “their part” in the circumstances that occurred in their life. This post in no way negates the responsibility of other’s involved, I’m just Owning What’s Mine!  So, here is my confessional:

I accept responsibility for not taking responsibility for Myself. My Life will Never again be in anyone else’s hand Except for God & Mine. Going Against everything my Nana ever taught me, I allowed myself to totally Emotionally, Mentally & Financially dependent on someone else…..I Own That!

I accept responsibility for detaching from my family. In the words of my cousin, When I got married, I became a Adams & forgot about the Caver’s & the Blassingame’s, TRUE! So now it’s my responsibility to pursue reconciliation….I Own That!!

I accept responsibility for not acknowledging the people who were really supporting & praying for me while I was in the “eye of the storm”. I allowed myself to be alienated by the words of others to think “everyone” was the enemy (alienation is a great tactic of the enemy). It is my responsibility to extend the “olive branch” of reconciliation…..I Own That!!

I accept responsibility for allowing my life to spin out of control. I knew God’s instructions for my life and lived it until I reached my late 30’s. I then, willfully chose to start living a life contrary to God’s will & l enjoyed it. I did not heed God’s warning & destruction soon followed…..I Own That!

I accept responsibility for allowing my family to be infected & affected. I was always very careful & protective about who I allowed into my circle but I allowed an “entity” in enter my life, my family & my home. I now know that their motive from the onset was to steal, kill & destroy. I ignored the warning from God, words from others and the nagging in the pit of my stomach, so instead of entertaining a Angel, I befriended a wolf in sheep’s clothing…..I Own That!

I accept responsibility for not covering & protecting my spouse. I allowed him to be open for the attack of the enemy by allowing my own Issues, Pain & Frustrations to distract me. I left space for someone else (who had perfectly positioned themself) to become his cheerleader, his supporter, his encourager & his confidant…..I Own That!

I accept responsibility for my words written and spoken. They are not to dis-credit anyone else nor defend or validate myself. This is My Journey, in My Words & I Own Them!
